Background

The Curse of Binding enchantment lets you curse an item in the game. Once a cursed item is worn by a player in Survival mode, it can not be removed until the item breaks or the player dies.

TIP: A cursed item can be removed at any time in Creative mode.

You can add the Curse of Binding enchantment to any piece of armor such as helmets, chestplates, leggings, boots or elytra using an enchanting table, anvil, or game command. Once the cursed item is worn by a player, the Curse of Binding will take effect and the player will not be able to take the item off.

The maximum level for the Curse of Binding enchantment is Level 1. This means that you can only enchant an item with up to Curse of Binding I, and nothing higher for this enchantment.

Curse

Curse of Binding is an enchantment that prevents removal of a cursed item from its armor slot.

  • 3Data values

Obtaining[edit]

This is a treasure enchantment. It is obtained only from chest loot or rarely by fishing. In Java Edition it is also available by trading for enchanted books.[1]

Usage[edit]

An item with Curse of Binding cannot be removed from any armor slot unless the player is in Creative mode, the player dies, or the item breaks. For items without durability, the player must die to remove the item, making removal in Hardcore mode impossible.

All mobs also follow the curse of binding; for example, if wearing a leather helmet enchanted with curse of binding, they cannot take it off to equip their preferred netherite helmet if they found one. A player cannot remove the enchantment using a grindstone or crafting table; instead, the item returns to the player still cursed. However, if the cursed item is a pumpkin or mob head, placing and breaking the head removes the curse.

If the keepInventorygamerule is set to true, the player keeps the cursed item even after death. Only breaking the item, if possible, removes it.

If a player applies the enchantment to a carved pumpkin and wears it, the player becomes unable to remove the carved pumpkin. If the gamerulekeepInventory is set to true or the player is in Hardcore mode, it becomes impossible for the player to remove the carved pumpkin without cheating in-game or dying in Hardcore mode. This can be used to troll other players, as the pumpkin overlay on the screen makes the game difficult to play. Because pumpkins have no durability, they are the most effective item to use this curse on. However, most players would not deliberately equip a cursed pumpkin, although a dispenser can be used to forcibly equip it onto a player.

This enchantment does not affect any non-armor items, and it does not prevent removal of items from one's inventory until it is equipped.
